Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of robotics, specifically to a humanoid robot with a 7-degree-of-freedom arm. Background Technology
[0002] Humanoid robots are bipedal robots that, due to their human-like morphological features, are well-suited to perform complex tasks in environments designed for humans, and have broad application prospects in fields such as medical care, social services, and industrial manufacturing.
[0003] However, existing humanoid robot arms have few degrees of freedom and low motion precision, making it difficult to achieve high-precision complex movements and adapt to complex operating environments. For example, patent CN219790352U discloses an intelligent bipedal humanoid robot based on Jetsonnano, whose arm includes a shoulder servo motor, an upper arm servo motor, a forearm servo motor, and a hand servo motor. The hand servo motor is used for hand movements, so the robot arm actually only has three rotational degrees of freedom: shoulder rotation, upper arm rotation, and forearm rotation. Another example is patent CN205769682U, which discloses a humanoid robot body structure that includes two arms with three degrees of freedom. Furthermore, since current robotic arms mainly rely on servo motors to achieve movement, increasing the number of servo motors to improve the arm's degrees of freedom would increase the arm's length or volume, which is not conducive to humanoid robot operation. Moreover, existing multi-degree-of-freedom arms are usually designed for applications with a certain working height, such as power grids, and are not designed for humanoid robots. For example, CN110193822B patent discloses a 7-degree-of-freedom high-voltage live-line working robotic arm, which includes 7 motors, a large arm component, a small arm component, a gripping component, and other structures. However, although its servo motor connection method can ensure the working height (or length), it also makes the entire robotic arm structure less compact and cannot be used on both sides of a humanoid robot's body.
[0004] In addition, existing humanoid robot legs are usually driven by hydraulic units, which can ensure the robot's load capacity, but also makes the leg structure more complex. For example, patent CN111959633B discloses a hydraulically driven legged bionic humanoid robot whose legs include, from top to bottom, a hip joint, a thigh plate, a knee joint, a calf plate, an ankle joint, and a foot plate. The hip joint has three degrees of freedom: rotation, lateral movement, and pitch; the knee joint has one degree of freedom: pitch; and the ankle joint can achieve forward and backward pitch or left and right lateral movement. The robot's hip joint includes structures such as a hip joint lateral swing hydraulic cylinder, a servo cylinder, a connecting plate, a thigh plate, and an upper limb connecting frame. The connecting plate, thigh plate, upper limb connecting frame, and hip joint lateral swing hydraulic cylinder form a quadrilateral to achieve lateral swing motion conversion. The hip joint pitch motion is driven by the hip joint pitch hydraulic drive unit rotating axially around a threaded shaft. Furthermore, the hip joint pitch hydraulic drive unit, the hip hydraulic drive unit support frame, the hip torsion joint, and the thigh plate form a four-bar linkage to achieve motion conversion. Therefore, the robot's leg structure is relatively complex.
[0005] The legs in the aforementioned CN205769682U patent also have 6 degrees of freedom. However, as described in the background technology of CN111959633B patent, the components of the leg mechanism of this bipedal robot driven by motors are arranged in a relatively dispersed manner, resulting in disadvantages such as low overall output and insufficient load capacity. Summary of the Invention

[0018] The advantages and positive effects of this invention are as follows:
[0019] 1. The arm of the present invention has 7 rotational degrees of freedom, and the structural design of each joint seat can ensure that the centers of each servo motor are approximately on the same straight line, thus naturally forming an arm similar to that of a human. Therefore, the arm of the present invention can improve the flexibility of movement and also meet the requirements for use in humanoid robots.
[0020] 2. The leg of the present invention improves the flexibility of leg movement by using three leg servos at the upper end. The connection structure of the first leg joint seat and the second leg joint seat at the upper end of the leg can ensure that the three servos are compact and closer to the body, without affecting the leg's power generation. At the same time, the power generation of the leg of the present invention is mainly achieved by the extension and retraction of the first drive device on the back of the thigh and the second and third drive devices on the back of the calf, which can still ensure the load capacity of the leg.
[0021] 3. The body of the present invention includes two rotational degrees of freedom: horizontal rotation and left-right swing. The head of the present invention includes two rotational degrees of freedom: forward-backward pitch rotation and horizontal rotation. The above structure can ensure that the binocular camera on the robot head and the laser displacement sensor on the upper part of the body can perform flexible scanning, while ensuring the flexibility of the robot's upper body movements.

The second arm servo 402 is perpendicularly connected to the axis of the third arm servo 403 via a second joint seat 4021. The second joint seat 4021 includes arc-shaped plates A40212 on both sides. The upper end of 0212 is provided with a second upper connecting plate 40211, which is connected to the corresponding end of the second arm servo 402. The lower end is connected through a second lower connecting plate 40213, and the second lower connecting plate 40213 is fitted onto the third arm servo 403. The lower end of the third arm servo 403 is perpendicularly connected to the axis of the fourth arm servo 404 through a third joint seat 4031. The third joint seat 4031 includes a connecting post 40312. The upper end of the connecting post 40312 is connected to the power end on the lower side of the third arm servo 403 through the third upper connecting plate 40311, and the lower end is provided with a connecting sleeve 40313, which is fitted onto the middle of the fourth arm servo 404. The fourth arm servo 404 is connected to the fifth arm servo 404 through the fourth joint seat 4041. The arm servo 405 is vertically connected along its axis, and the fourth joint seat 4041 includes an arc-shaped plate B40412. The upper end of the arc-shaped plate B40412 has a fourth upper connecting plate 40411 connected to the power end of the fourth arm servo 404, and the lower end has a fourth lower connecting plate 40413 fitted onto the fifth arm servo 405. The fifth arm servo 405 is vertically connected to the sixth arm servo 406 via the fifth joint seat 4051. The fifth joint seat 4051 includes a connecting sleeve 40512 fitted onto the sixth arm servo 406. The upper end of the connecting sleeve 40512 has a fifth upper connecting plate 40511 connected to the power end of the fifth arm servo 405.

Through the above-mentioned arm structure design, the present invention can not only achieve 7 degrees of freedom rotation, but also ensure that the overall structure of the arm is compact. Compared with the prior art, the servos of the arm of the present invention are connected through the joint seats, which can ensure that the center is approximately on the same straight line, thus naturally forming a human-like arm. Therefore, the arm 4 of the present invention can improve the flexibility of movement and also meet the usage requirements of humanoid robots. The sixth arm servo 406 drives the seventh arm servo 407 to rotate around the joint hinge axis 40612 at the lower end of the sixth joint seat 4061 through the drive plate 4062. This can better control the swing range of the lower palm 6. At the same time, the arc plate C40611 of the sixth joint seat 4061 can ensure that there is enough space between the seventh arm servo 407 and the sixth arm servo 406, thus ensuring that the lower palm 6 has enough movement space. The palm 6 is a technology known in the art; for example, it can adopt the palm structure of CN112571446B or other suitable commercially available products.
[0033] like Figures 7-8As shown, the leg 7 of the present invention includes a first leg servo 701, a first leg joint seat 7011, a second leg servo 702, a second leg joint seat 7021, a third leg servo 703, a thigh 7031, a lower leg 7041, a foot connecting seat 707, and a foot 8 connected in sequence. The first leg joint seat 7011 includes an arc-shaped plate E70112, and the upper end of the arc-shaped plate E70112 is fixed with a first leg upper connecting plate 70111. On the first leg servo 701, the first leg upper connecting plate 70111 is fixedly connected to the body 5. The lower end of the arc-shaped plate E70112 is provided with a first leg lower connecting sleeve 70113, which is fitted onto the middle of the second leg servo 702. The second leg joint seat 7021 includes a second leg upper connecting plate 70211 and a second leg lower connecting plate 70212 that are perpendicular to each other. The second leg upper connecting plate 70211 and the second leg servo... The power end of the motor 702 is connected, the second leg lower connecting plate 70212 is fitted onto the middle of the third leg servo 703, the upper end of the thigh 7031 is connected to the power end of the third leg servo 703, and the lower end is hinged to the upper end of the lower leg 7041 through the lower hinge shaft 70311. The upper part of the thigh 7031 is provided with an upper thigh hinge end 70312, and the upper end of the lower leg 7041 is provided with a lower leg hinge end 70411. The first drive device 704 is located on the thigh 702. The upper end of the 031 is hinged to the upper hinge end 70312 of the thigh, and the lower end is hinged to the upper hinge end 70411 of the calf. The first driving device 704 can be a linear driving device such as a cylinder. The lower end of the calf 7041 is hinged to the foot connecting seat 707 via the foot pitch hinge 70412. The foot connecting seat 707 has a foot side swing hinge 7072 inside. The foot connecting seat 707 has driving hinge plates 7071 on both sides. Figure 8 As shown, the lower leg 7041 is provided with a second driving device 705 and a third driving device 706 on its rear side. The upper ends of the second driving device 705 and the third driving device 706 are both hinged to the hinge seat 70413 provided on the lower leg 7041. The lower ends of the second driving device 705 and the third driving device 706 are respectively hinged to the driving hinge plate 7071 on the corresponding side. When the second driving device 705 and the third driving device 706 extend and retract synchronously, they can drive the foot 8 to pitch and rotate back and forth around the foot pitch hinge axis 70412. When the second driving device 705 and the third driving device 706 extend and retract asynchronously, they can drive the foot 8 to swing left and right around the foot swing hinge axis 7072. The lower end of the foot connecting seat 707 is fixed to the foot 8 through a foot connecting flange 708.
[0034] The leg 7 structure of the present invention firstly has three servo motors located near the torso 5 to achieve three rotational degrees of freedom. The connection structure of the first leg joint seat 7011 and the second leg joint seat 7012 can ensure that the three servo motors are compact and closer to the torso 5, without affecting the power generation of the leg 7. The power generation of the leg 7 is limited to the angle adjustment of the leg 7. The power generation of the leg 7 of the present invention is mainly achieved by the extension and retraction of the first drive device 704 on the back of the thigh 7031 and the second drive device 705 and the third drive device 706 on the back of the lower leg 7041, which can still ensure the load capacity of the leg 7.
[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the body 5 includes a hip 502 and a torso 504. The hip 502 houses a first torso servo 501. An L-shaped torso connecting seat 5021 is located on the upper side of the hip 502, and the horizontal portion of the lower side of the torso connecting seat 5021 is connected to the power end of the first torso servo 501. A second torso servo 503 is located on the vertical portion of the torso connecting seat 5021. The lower end of the torso 504 has a connecting bracket connected to the power end of the second torso servo 503. Thus, the torso 504 can be driven to rotate horizontally by the first torso servo 501 and can also be driven to swing left and right by the second torso servo 503. Figure 7 As shown, the first upper leg connecting plate 70111 at the upper end of the leg 7 is connected to the hip 502, and as... Figure 4 As shown, the upper end of the torso 504 is provided with a head mounting plate 505, and arm connecting plates 5051 are provided on both sides of the head mounting plate 505. The first arm servo 401 at the upper end of the arm 4 is fixed on the corresponding arm connecting plate 5051. Figure 1 As shown, the head 2 is fixed on the head mounting plate 505.
[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the head 2 includes a first L-shaped support plate 201, a first head servo 202, a second L-shaped support plate 203, a second head servo 204, and a third L-shaped support plate 205. The horizontal plate of the first L-shaped support plate 201 is fixedly connected to the head mounting plate 505 at the upper end of the torso 504. The vertical plate of the first L-shaped support plate 201 is fitted onto the first head servo 202. The vertical plate of the second L-shaped support plate 203 is connected to the power end of the first head servo 202. The horizontal plate of the second L-shaped support plate 203 is connected to the second head servo 204. The horizontal plate of the third L-shaped support plate 205 is fitted onto the power end of the second head servo 204. A binocular camera 1 is provided on the vertical plate of the third L-shaped support plate 205. Additionally, as shown... Figure 1As shown, a laser displacement sensor 3 is provided on the front side of the torso 504. Both the binocular camera 1 and the laser displacement sensor 3 are technologies known in the art and are used to guide the robot to walk.
[0037] The working principle of this invention is as follows:
[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the body 5 of the present invention includes two rotational degrees of freedom: horizontal rotation (implemented by the first body servo 501) and left-right swaying (implemented by the second body servo 503). Figure 3 As shown, the head 2 of the present invention includes two rotational degrees of freedom: pitch rotation (implemented by the first head servo motor 202) and horizontal rotation (implemented by the second head servo motor 204). The above structure can ensure that the binocular camera 1 of the robot head and the laser displacement sensor 3 at the upper end of the body 5 can perform flexible scanning, while ensuring the flexibility of the upper part of the robot's movements.
[0039] like Figures 7-8 As shown, the leg 7 of the present invention includes three rotational degrees of freedom (achieved by the first leg servo 701, the second leg servo 702, and the third leg servo 703), two forward and backward swinging degrees of freedom (the first drive device 704 extends and retracts to achieve forward and backward swinging of the lower leg 7041, and the second drive device 705 and the third drive device 706 extend and retract synchronously to achieve forward and backward swinging of the foot 8), and one left and right swinging degree of freedom (the second drive device 705 and the third drive device 706 extend and retract asynchronously to achieve left and right swinging of the foot 8). The connection structure of the first leg joint seat 7011 and the second leg joint seat 7012 at the upper end of the leg 7 ensures that the three servo structures are compact and closer to the body 5, without affecting the power generation of the leg 7. It is limited to the angle adjustment of the leg 7. The power generation and walking of the leg 7 of the present invention mainly rely on the extension and retraction of the first drive device 704 on the back of the thigh 7031 and the second drive device 705 and the third drive device 706 on the back of the lower leg 7041, so that the load capacity of the leg 7 can still be guaranteed. Therefore, the leg 7 of the present invention can ensure both load-bearing capacity and flexibility of movement, and the overall structure is more compact.
[0040] And such Figures 5-6 As shown, the arm 4 of the present invention has 7 rotational degrees of freedom (achieved by seven arm servos respectively). However, the present invention can ensure that the centers of each servo are approximately on the same straight line through the structural design of each joint seat, thus naturally forming an arm similar to a human arm. Therefore, the arm 4 of the present invention can improve the flexibility of movement and also meet the usage requirements of humanoid robots.
